               PAIN
        By ... Steve Lucky

Everyone has times of pain
From which he or she can not abstain.
It could be caused by too much strain
Or ineffient use of the brain.
This causes many people to complain,
Yet a certain calm one must maintain.
Although trouble can fall like rain,
None of it has to leave a stain.
Personal energy pain can drain
Making one feel like nothing can sustain.
Somehow one must manage to obtain
Better ways he or she can gain
Enough endurance to handle the main
Reason for the throbbing pain.
Hurt should not conquer the will to live.
Despite it all, life has more to give.
